iraq's prime minister asks the world for help in fighting terror in his country looks at the numbers which suggest there's been a rapid rise of insurgency across the whole planet. with fingers being pointed in the u.s. over who is responsible for spying on european leaders edward snowden says he's ready to share his knowledge of the n.s.a.'s activities with germany. bombing a sovereign country and getting away with it israeli warplanes reportedly strike syria yet again. but everybody. this in the midst of syria's civil war as the government tries to meet international obligations and complete the first stage of its chemical. base sit back and visit to. britain to reinforce its new cyber defense

force with convicted hackers but. criminals are king to sign up. for most of us into here in moscow were just turned ten pm this is. first tonight a developing story there's been a shooting at a security checkpoint in los angeles international airport now these are the latest pictures from there at least at least two people thought to have been injured at nine thirty am local time a security official on the government who was with a rifle although we're now getting some reports saying that a god may have been killed the shooter is now apparently in custody well the airport is now down from where we now bring you live pictures with departing flights suspended terminal three evacuated witnesses say they heard about

a dozen shots which caused a. international airport is the busiest in the world. we'll bring you more details on the incident we get that. by the way you can follow updates on the story as well as a live stream from the scene and i web site r.t. dot com. iraq's prime minister is in the u.s. asking for help to fight the al qaeda terror attacks that are ripping his country apart on a daily basis. you know that we want an international war a global war against terror that if the situation in iraq is not treated properly it will be disastrous for the whole world what we are saying is that the international community is responsible as well while he's been in washington a series of bombings have rocked his home country at least twenty three lines of claim by violence in various regions of iraq all this adds to

a global wave of attacks which could make twenty thirteen the deadliest year for terrorism in history beating even twenty twelve's death toll of fifteen thousand and as our teeth go to church car reports the most active terror groups are all aligned with al qaeda even twelve years after the u.s. launched a war against it. terrorist attacks have more thing since two thousand and one when the u.s. began its war on terror the number of attacks and fatalities has reached a record high the national consortium for the study of terrorism and responses to terrorism estimates last year alone there were more than eight thousand five hundred terrorist attacks worldwide they killed more than fifteen thousand five hundred people across africa asia and the middle east you walk faces an incredible surge of violence this year they recorded six thousand civilian deaths here is how terrorists skyrocketed in iraq following the u.s. invasion in two thousand and three. the iraqi prime minister is here in washington

he just said his nation is facing quote a war of genocide and that the revolutions in the region have made it worse. was a power vacuum was created another terrorist organizations were able to exploit this and gaining ground they benefited from the fall of state structures terrorists now flocked to syria for safe haven and the firth of syria is from a deal between the opposition and the government the closer it is to becoming a failed state where al qaeda and groups similar to al qaeda rule the day so as all these countries iraq syria libya face growing terror washington says they decimated al qaeda leadership and al qaeda is not as dangerous as before as a result of the enormous pressure we've put on the group we have eliminated all of al qaeda senior leadership in afghanistan and pakistan and because the current leaders about leaders of al qaeda core so worried about their personal safety

they're far less able to plan attacks but the words don't match his numbers if anything during the years of washington's war on terror terror only grew in washington i'm going to. africa are seeing a surge of radicalism you spoke to iraq war veteran michael prysner about the issue and he believes the first step to stopping all of this is shutting down the drone campaigns. the first thing that would go on a really long way to changing this situation is closing down all of the u.s. military bases that are in over one hundred thirty countries around the world many of them muslim countries ending the regular drone strikes that take place on these countries and of course kind of a daily terrorism and acted by the united states against other countries through drones you know that there's this term that they use to justify all of this is termed american exceptionalism which of course is an offensive term to many people

but it's real meaning is that the exception is that the u.s. considers itself having the right to attack anybody in the world at any time well there was no sign of drone strikes coming to an end to day and u.s. aircraft has killed the head of the taliban in pakistan four missiles before that his car killing at least five people though some reports suggest the actual number of dead could be as high as twenty five when he's correspondent tony comeau he had been will join me live from islamabad later this hour with more details on america's use of drones is being discussed today by peter bell and his guests on all the t's crossed talk is a brief previously. the job issue is something that we can talk about and we should talk about and we should change it really has to be from the american people who are starting to get educated about this issue and starting to organize and protest you know we demand others to live up to a standard of accountability that we don't hold up to our.

cross-talk coming our way a little later in our country terrorism is still the main argument american politicians used to justify spying programs but some u.s. authorities are more or less admitting it's gone too far at least according to the latest comments made by america's secretary of state john kerry said neither he or the president knew everything that was happening because the system ran on automatic pilot simply because the technology and the ability of there but the n.s.a. chief keith alexander questioned attempts to plead ignorance after a former u.s. ambassador said spying on foreign leaders did little to protect national security alexander insisted it's actually policymakers including ambassadors who decide who is monitored so a rift is growing in washington's political establishment over who is responsible for the spying which is cause a loss of trust among voters at home and abroad and that breach of trust in germany could see edward snowden go to berlin to testify over the use over the u.s. tapping of chancellor angela merkel's phone and in

a letter to german authorities the former n.s.a. contractor expressed hope that growing support for what he did will prompt washington to abandon what he called harmful behavior. the details according to the member of the german parliament edward snowden is they're willing to come to germany and testify against n.s.a. of course that is the story that is being told by the opposition member of the german parliament has met with mr snowden in moscow on thursday and the former n.s.a. contractor has actually issued an entire letter address it to the german chancellor angela merkel in which he said that she would be more than willing to come and testify because you know. there's a lot about the n.s.a. exigencies not just in europe but in the entire world would be happy just to talk about them but he can only do that of berlin guarantees him a safe passage meaning that takes will not be extradited to the united states on top of that edward snowden of course doubted that she would be more than willing to testify not of berlin but in washington unfortunately that is impossible. the

moment of course at this point n.s.a. in germany find himself in sort of hot water considering the fact that it has been revealed that in this day has been listening to the private phone conversations all german chancellor angela merkel regarding edward snowden's life in russia where he has been since june well according to his own russian lawyer that snowden has gotten a job with one of russia's top internet companies as a technical specialist however we do not know which company that it is because of course off the security measures. we also had a chance to speak to edward snowden's lawyer in russia. he told us the whistleblower would not necessarily have to travel to germany to testify. of course edward snowden can't leave russia because he's got refugee status here and if he travels to a different country he uses it so if germany has any questions for mr snowden that this could be resolved through treaties exist between germany and russia and edward

wouldn't have to travel there to testify the level of danger is still high but we hear comments from the u.s. government almost on a daily basis that edward is still on the wanted list we've done everything possible to ensure the security as far as surveillance and wiretapping goes i wouldn't comment on that because those who have been following the situation around snowden know what u.s. intelligence is capable of. internet firms are taking matters into their own hands to protect data from the prying n.s.a. to companies that used to offer encrypted e-mail services before being forced to shut down and now teaming up to try and make any service secure president and co-founder of one of them for the zimmerman from sudden circle told r.t. what is driving the initiative we're trying to restore the privacy. that we feel that has been lost by a pervasive surveillance email is intercepted by intelligence agencies all around

the world and we've discovered through the snowden revelations that. government is spying on its own citizens so it's turned all americans into foreigners as if we were. you know intelligence targets we can't make everything surveillance proof but what we can do is try to reduce the amount of exposure of e-mail metadata that's the data that says what the man who works from who we date and time and these days the matter data and the mail header is is really important for being able to surveil a society and see who's talking to who. the life for moscow would be twenty four hours a day more news coming up in just a few minutes. well

news continues here in r.t. israel launched another strike inside syria according to us media reports citing an official inside the white house the target was a military base in the west of the country which stored a missile arsenal apparently destined for hezbollah in london be it the israeli military though has refused to confirm or deny that the attack near the port city of latakia even took place but this is not the first time the country's been accused of breaching syria's sovereignty and bombing targets that have been three center attacks this year in general may and july israeli leadership refused to confirm them as well and analysts say that this will continue to happen as long as powerful ally is watching israel's back. you do not have the right to it another sovereign nation and israel has done that and if we had

a functioning government according to war. in the korean war this would be condemned and israel a would be reprimanded and what would he like it's our nature. but everybody knows that. and the only reason it is that stepped it is because the president united states obama. to occur otherwise it could not occur. syria may now have destroyed all of its equipment used to produce toxic weapons but the job is just beginning this is the first time a nation has gone through a process of chemical disarmament during a time of war and as reports from damascus that makes the task far from straightforward. dangerous and dirty that's how the nobel prize committee described

the work of chemical weapons inspectors inside syria not to mention a brutally tight deadline october twenty five damascus provides a detailed plan of its chemical weapons stockpiles done october twenty seven foreign inspectors visited all declared sites missed and by today syria finishes destroying all equipment used in the production and mixing of poison gas and nerve agents done yesterday we eliminate. whatever we can but you know this is a very complicated the process complications fueled by so-called security concerns and that's the reason why one deadline already has been missed one of the biggest problems the tween faces is how to access sites in rebel controlled areas so far the rebels have been unwilling to cooperate foreign inspectors have managed to visit twenty one of twenty three sites and although they haven't verbally blamed the rebels damascus insists it's doing its share until now. those.

sites being visited are under government control and we hope those who are controlling the. group still them to implement what they are expected to implement it's the most difficult mission if undertaken by the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons destroying a country's chemical weapons stockpile in the midst of a civil war two women are syria actually stop producing chemical weapons in one thousand nine hundred eight as a possessed alternatives that can be a strategic substitution and are not in conflict with international law but none of this answers the reason why foreign inspectors are in damascus in the first place a chemical attack on august twenty first in which hundreds of people were killed off two rockets with sarin gas were fired at damascus as suburbs those responsible are still at large the next deadline in the destruction of syria's chemical weapons program is the middle of next year by then damascus must have destroyed or removed

its entire stockpile and ambitious timeline in very difficult circumstances policy r.t. damascus. well as we've heard a u.s. drone strike has killed the head of the taliban movement in pakistan let's get the details now from. dane who joins me live now from islamabad so tell us what happened and just how significant is this death. well actually again another strike that has hit the area of north waziristan now the official sources has gone from the demerger of. swords and top of his military aides. of course. destroyed. as finish all the holds that he were actually putting on to grow on with the negotiations with the taliban know what

two days back has announced that the negotiations had already started and he has requested actually in his last visit to the u.s. . to stop drone attacks on his own his own pakistan especially in the tribal area and considering that that is. a breach of its integrity of the country and a sovereign country like pakistan a few minutes back as well for office has issued a strong condemnation of the strike on north waziristan of course my sword was very important lead to taliban pakistan as he was leading the movement for years and he is in middle of his territory and he has been successful actually to strike against the government installations and the military installations there was hopes that this. confrontations could end by insisting

from the government of pakistan to go on with the negotiation in spite of the some kind of obstacle has come up with the some strikes that the taliban has already. targeted some militant and military installations in different areas but now i think after the killing of the gentle man which he has also the bounty was on his head around five million dollars that the u.s. has actually has pulled this. that would actually dies all the peace. negotiations process and endeavors that has been initiated by islamabad on this side so we expect actually here in pakistan that the coming days will be very tough for the pakistani government to deal with the with this especially this strike that has hit the north waziristan where the.

saud and his top aides militants has been killed. in islamabad thanks very much indeed for that live update. in britain people convicted of cyber crimes could get a chance of redemption or join in the cyber defense force computer specialist could find themselves working alongside regular armed forces to defend national security but many hackers are less than willing to be a part of it is laura smith find out why. the life and times of. britain from cruising through cyberspace to banged up in prison to what can for the government's details of the u.k.'s proposed defense schools and mudge officials admit they're considering hiring convicts it's just the you know the implication is right that in black and white that it's ok for governments to have people but it's

throughout october well if many italians are unhappy with the way they're being forced to live for immigrants it can be even worse those who come in search of a better life often find themselves in squalid conditions no better than the ones they left behind europe went to take it up. some call it a city within a city others a refugee ghetto it's like we're still in africa refugees from four african countries over twelve hundred people crammed inside a former university building in a room now known as us. here but. we weren't allowed to film inside the rooms but a doctor treating the refugees agreed to describe the conditions they were but i think. there are thirty five tabs and thirty five showers and eighty percent of them need to be repaired the beds are all seen in very bad condition actually

a lot of people sleep in the car thousands of refugees have been flocking to italy mainly across the mediterranean in search of a better life but the country's only economic problems including the worst recession since the second world war provide very little opportunity at the same time. obliges all refugees to stay in the country where they receive asylum those who manage to avoid registration go for the more illegals but those who don't want local shelters are running out of space for all the newcomers without a job or even a place to sleep where do you go for the majority it's the train stations the meeting point for. possible work or some carriage touring to be in makeshift shelter at night which is one of the best so i can sometimes immigrants from different countries fight each other like the albanians and those from bangladesh for example pennies on what they say they make it there are a lot of them here of various nationalities at first they came from southern

countries now also from eastern once the whole region is full of immigrants. a polish or a disease in gadget they're very strong. but leave alone well also you will not be. solve this problem the e.u. has pledged to give an additional thirty million euros for italy to build more shelters for the refugees but it's unlikely this will help create new jobs or ease the flow of immigrants all together we got this going off r.t. road. so that brings up today for the moment about when the news team or just have a half enough and i mean time sophie shevardnadze talks to mixed martial arts fighter jeff monson also known as the snow man that's after the break.

the office of civil rights in the city of seattle washington has told city employees that certain terms may not be used in official emails and discussions scoring to google fox news these terms would be brown bag and citizen ninety nine percent of americans when they hear the expression brown bag think of taking a nice healthy lunch you know in a brown paper bag to work with themselves but a politically correct insanity land these words are an obvious reminder of the days when a person's skin color was compared to a brown paper bag to determine race well if any were even remotely like to an incident of racism needs to be banned then we've got to get rid of the word blanket because they gave the native americans disease still blankets. to kill them i and they block their land with beads so we've got to get rid of that word to remember the separate drinking fountains and segregated buses based on race in america yes so we can't say those words anymore either oh you might just possibly remember something bad which could lead to the ultimate horror of the modern western world unpleasant thoughts we see a lot of western countries the term citizen becoming offensive because it makes

resident foreigners legal or illegal feel like second class people well compared to actual citizens legally you kind of are if you're offended that you are not treated as a citizen of seattle why not assimilate become a citizen the united states join the team but that's just my opinion. on welcome to said.
